I didnt want to believe how crap this was!

Advantages: More accessible for the non-xfile fan, waste 2 hours easily, good sountrack,good to see the duo ag
Disadvantages: very incoherent plot, plot maks no sense,

... INTRODUCTION This film is based on one of the most popular TV shows ever produced back in the 90's- 'the X-files'. The TV show ran from 1993 to 2002; it probed into mainly conspiracy theories involving the government and the existence of extra-terrestrial life and the occasional 'monster' stories which I enjoyed greatly. It is the second film to be created in based on the franchise itself; its predecessor was crudely put together to create something of a film that was released to the cinemas in 1998. This film was released worldwide in 2008; directed by Chris Carter (he did all the directing in the TV series too) and he uses the same style that has been successful in his TV series; not straying too far from his experiences. The duo; Duchovny and Anderson reunite once again, brushed the dust off their roles after a 6 years...

Review of X-Files - I Want To Believe (DVD)

I BELIEVE

Advantages: Gives comfort to people
Disadvantages: Unscrupulous gits that exploit peoples beliefs as a way of making money

...From photographs of ghosts and TV shows to Doris Stokes books i've watched and read about this subject for many years and even more so since my mother passed away two years ago.The one thing i have never done though is been to any spiritualist meetings or visited a psychic,mainly due to the fact that i couldn't stand the though of being lied to or being disappointed because the medium wasn't able to tell me anything.Despite all this i DO believe in the paranormal and after life even though i am fully aware that there are fraudsters out there that claim to be able to communicate with the dead for the sole purpose of making a quick and large profit. *********** WHY ? ********* Well,the main reason for my belief in the after life is because it is a great comfort to think that one day,when my eyes close for the last time,i will float...

Review of Do you believe in life after death?

Not a trace of Doubt in My Mind. I'm a Believer.

Advantages: witty,well written,enticing story and believeable characters.
Disadvantages: Laughing out loud might get you stared at in public places.

...My Mother believes her Dad contacts her via the kitchen lighting. When the lights in the kitchen flicker she will say ?Your Grandad isn?t happy about something Vick!? and when the lights are shining brighter than bright it is obviously because Grandad is happy and contented! My mum isn?t completely batty (not yet) and generally speaks common sense so why does she honestly believe that her Dad is busy fiddling with her kitchen electrics instead of lounging comfortably on some cloud in Heaven? Well I didn?t have a clue and then I picked up this very book in a charity shop in West Kirby for 99p. If you read on it might shed some light (get it?) on my mothers belief. It was the title on the spine of this book that caught my eye. I am a believer and my curiosity demanded I gave the book a closer inspection. The front was plain...

Review of I'm a Believer - Jessica Adams

Not Quite Ready To Believe

Advantages: The return of Mulder and Scully
Disadvantages: Script and direction could have been better

...When an FBI agent vanishes from her home the only connection the FBI have to finding her is a convicted paedophile priest. Doubting his ability they call upon one man with a history in this type of case, Fox Mulder (David Duchovny). He's been in hiding for the last 8 years avoiding false charges brought by his old FBI bosses to discredit his work. They ask for his help and agree to drop all of the charges as Mulder and former work, now cohabiter Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson) are reunited to work for the FBI once again. I'd always been a big fan of the X Files throughout the 90's until it came to an end in 2002. I'd even enjoyed the first movie and so when this return to the big screen was announced last year have to admit to have been looking forward t it. It's taken me until now to see it and given the reviews I've read over...

Review of X-Files - I Want To Believe (DVD)

Neither a Believer nor interested.

Advantages: occupys some free time
Disadvantages: doesnt 'do' anything

...Recently my pile of 'to reads' has been growing at a worrying rate, it appears that far from simply enjoying books I have become addicted to buying them, a state of affairs which means the book man at work has become one of my best friends. On one of his recent visits he offered up a set of three books by one author for a mere £5, Jessica Adams the author in question is no someone I have ever heard of previously but she has written several books other than the three I bought. The first of the three that I got around to reading was I'm a Believer. Teacher Mark has just lost his girlfriend Catherine in a car accident, and at her funeral he starts to see and hear her again, which would be fine but he doesnt believe in life after death and finds mediums, Horoscopes and the like faintly ridiculous. His friends Felix and Alison...

Review of I'm a Believer - Jessica Adams

I believe

Advantages: Knowing that the ones you love and miss are still up there!
Disadvantages: Knowing that the bad ones are up there too!

...When I was younger I believed that it was only old people that died. I remember being about six and asking my dad what happens when you die. He told me that I would go to a place called Heaven which was magical and wonderful, but if I went there I wouldn`t be able to come back. So right from an early age I believed in life after death. As I grew older I then realised that the close ones around me could die whatever the age. My grandad first, then others and then my uncle - only thirty seven years old - suddenly I began to feel scared about death knowing that it could happen to anyone. I suppose in a way I was selfish in my thoughts, and wondered how I could manage to live without my loved ones. Then when I was sixteen my nanna died. She had always been like a second mum to me and I was devastated. Although I believed in God I couldnt...

Review of Do you believe in life after death?

I believe

Advantages: Gives you a warm confortable feeling
Disadvantages: Beware of crooks

...Having read so many other op's on this subject I thought I would write my own, so this is what I think.... I am a strong believer that there is life after death and it is when life begins. What we are all living now is just a dress rehearsal for the main event. I believe that when die and our spirits leave their bodies that this is merely like removing an overcoat, this is discarded of, either buried or cremated and that we go to where we belong. All the trials and tribulations that we experience on earth are just a test to see how we will cope in the real world. When you pass to the other side you feel no pain, no anger, no jealousy and everyone lives in peace!! I know that all sounds very deep but I truely believe it. My father passed away suddenly 1st September 2000, I have always been interested in life after death and have...

Review of Do you believe in life after death?

Magic - I can't believe I only discovered it now!

Advantages: Incredible coverage, long-lasting, really works
Disadvantages: On first application it smells a bit funny but when the air gets to it its fine

...I suffer from some hyper-pigmentation on my face and was beginning to dispair. There didn't seem to be any make up on the market that would help, any products I got that were specifically for covering up hyper-pigmentation were expensive and didn't seem to work at all. Most were like stage make up - thick and made me look like I'd caked my face in foundation. One of my friends who swears by touche Eclat for covering bags under her eyes recommended it to me and I haven't looked back since. It's really miraculous. It blends in easily, reflects the light so any dark areas instantly appear lighter and can be used in other areas too - bags, scars, red marks. The packaging format makes it easy and subtle to take to the bathroom for touch ups too. I can't imagine how I survived without it and am amazed I've only just discovered it. I would...

Review of Yves Saint Laurent Touche Eclat (Radiant Touch)

"I can believe it's not butter"

Advantages: Better for you than butter, spreads easily from the fridge.
Disadvantages: Pricey and doesn't taste like butter.

...My wife and daughter buy this fake butter as they are "scared" to eat the real thing, I also think they don't like it that much! I tried it recently out of curiosity (along with several other brands I've tried over the years) and it does not taste like butter at all (what a surprise)! The only good things to say about it are, it spreads from the fridge and is better for you than butter. It's not that cheap and Asda's "you'd butter believe it" is closer to a butter taste but in my opinion, all these butter alternatives are far away from the real thing. If you don't eat many things that need butter, why not simply use butter, spread it thinly and enjoy your sandwich....

Review of I Can't believe it's no butter

"I Could Believe It Wasn't Butter!"

Advantages: Very easy To Spread
Disadvantages: Contains A Lot Of E Numbers

...I am not a big fan of butter so you may wonder why I have chosen to write a review on a margarine spread which by its very name "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter" obviously pretends to be good enough to fool the consumer into thinking that they are actually eating butter when in fact they are eating margarine. You may ask yourself also why I currently have two 500g tubs of this fake butter stuff sitting in the bottom of my fridge. The answer to these questions are quite simple. Following a recent trip to the supermarket I forget to buy my regular spread which tends to be Flora margarine so I resigned myself to the fact that I was going to have to part with a few extra pennies down at my local Spar. It was in the Spar that faced with the vast choice of the Spar's own brand soft margarine at 79p or a BOGOF offer on "I Can't Believe It...
